OUR STORY
The Inn at the Terminus of the King’s Highway
Back in the early 1900s, when Provincetown was considered a frontier town, it flourished and gained fame mainly as a remote artist's colony and summertime resort for Boston's well-to-do families. With the introduction and popularity of the touring car, word quickly spread about the unique character of this frontier town where the land meets the water.
During the 1920s, Provincetown became a summertime destination for the city folk of Boston and New York. One adventurous soul came up with the idea of building a hotel at the end of the King's Highway in the far west end of Provincetown. The location is where the Pilgrims first landed in the new world and drew up and signed the historic Mayflower Compact (as well as tended to some overdue laundry).
